Brussels Sprouts and Bacon

9/6/2016

Are you looking for a healthy side dish for dinner, but your family resists eating vegetables? Well, look no further. The entire family will love this recipe because everything tastes better with bacon!  There are not many ingredients involved in this recipe and it is simple to make. Be sure to use the highest quality meats and organic vegetables. I get my Brussels sprouts and bacon at the local farmer's market. Brussels sprouts are a member of the cabbage family and are nutrient-dense. They are an excellent source of folic acid, vitamins C and K, and beta-carotene. They are also a very good source of vitamin B6, fiber, thiamine, and potassium and contain numerous cancer-fighting phytochemicals (glucosinolates). Besides being nutritious, they are also delicious! Bet you didn't know I was also a poet.
Prep time: 30 minutes
Cook time: 40-45 minutes
​Serves: 5
Ingredients:
  • 6 pasture-raised bacon strips, baked in oven
  • 1 pound organic Brussels sprouts, stems cut off and quartered
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary
  • sea salt and black pepper, to taste

Preparation:
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Cook bacon for about 20 minutes until crispy.
  3. While bacon is cooking, quarter the Brussels sprouts and place in a glass baking dish. 
  4. When bacon is done, dice the bacon and add to the Brussels sprouts along with the bacon grease, minced garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine then spread evenly in the baking dish.
  5. Bake in the pre-heated oven for 40-45 minutes or until the Brussels sprouts are browned and tender. Stir halfway though the cooking time.
  6. Serve alongside your favorite protein.
